[QUOTE="michelle75, post: 251145, member: 6935"] Thank you for all the advice, we are looking into having her evaluated, although I understand this behavior could be normal and might I add that I don't believe she is committing a sin I'm not so sure she has complete control over this, she is using this as an excuse to leave class and was spending a long time in the school bathroom which is the main reason the school sends someone with her because she was missing so much class time, she is so behind in school as it is and to leave class just to go do this is not acceptable, doing this in front of my 5 year old is not acceptable. When she got put in time out last week for a lie she was sat in the hallway on a chair not 10ft from my whole family we caught her doing it again so she doesn't just do this in privacy. I have done alot of research on child masterbation and what I have found that yes it is normal to a point but when the child is doing it multiple times daily no matter where they are it has become an obsession and the child needs help, I'm not a quitter and I do love and care for this child as if she was my biological child, my husband and I blame ourselves for her behavior and not just the touching because we don't know how to help her, but we are only human and we have 3 other children at home that do not show any signs of behavior problems and it's hard to deal with all of this because we have never had to deal with this before. I keep telling myself over and over again when she gets older she will be grateful for everything we did to help her and thats what keeps me going. Although the touching so much does disturb me, it's not my only concern she lie's all the time not just little white lies big lies, lie's about the kids she is in school with, the teacher, the counselor. I know she's doing it for attention but some of these lie's could hurt other people and herself.The stealing over $60.00 worth of books from the book fair at school, getting ISS for 2 days because of this, these issues concern me just as much if not more.
